Newcastle boss ready for Man Utd clash

Pardew is keen to bounce back from their 3-1 defeat to Manchester City last weekend.

“I wouldn’t say it was one to enjoy,” Pardew told the Shields Gazette.

“For us, it’s about getting back on the unbeaten run and looking for the result we need to do that.

“We have to make them work hard for anything they get. It’s a difficult-looking game, but so was Man City, and we created chances there.

“With more fortune this time, we’ll see what we can produce.”

He added: “They had a difficult night against Benfica, and we need to maximise everything we can at Old Trafford.”
